In the UGCC parish that I go to sometimes, they play a CD of Studite Monks singing hymns for the Great Fast. The album also contains some songs in Greek like the “It is truly meet…”

Does anyone know where I can get this CD in the States? I don’t see it on ITUNES or anywhere like that.
 
Well, I did a cursory review of Ukrainian online CD shops and Yevshan offers the following CDs in the States on Ukrainian religious liturgical music.

No Studites, you’ll see. You might want to ask the parish where they got the music from. On websites in Ukraine I searched in cyrillic but only got linked to Music Forums which provide a Forum Download Link to the Studites’ sung Liturgy (for free obviously) but I think it’s done by downloading and rapidshare (which is how many in Ukraine basically now get their music I think, over the internet) so I haven’t done it because I don’t know how the Forum acquired the music. Plus there are No Songs listed on the Music Section on the Forum for the Great Fast by the Studites, so I think asking someone from the UGCC would be best. They’ll have contact info. for the Studites’ music. 🙂
 
Thanks for your help. I guess I will shoot off an email to my friend in L’viv. I find that I am an auditory learner so I would like to get the CD so I can learn the hymns in Ukrainian. Usually during Lent I go to as many pre-sanctified Liturgies as I can.
 
Byzantine Church Supplies in Philadelphia (the bookstore for the UGCC Archeparchial Cathedral) has several recordings of the Studite Fathers available on CD as well as other UGCC monastic and seminary choirs. ukrcathedral.com/byzsup/index.html
 
Wow, I would love to buy a CD of this, or honestly prefer finding an Mp3 service with it. Anyone aware of a good source for this? Or is the best we have provided in the links already posted? I’m compiling a Mix CD of traditional hyms, chants etc… I’d love to incorperate some Eastern Catholic samples in Greek.
